Looks like the hype machine paid off!

It seems that Marvel wasn't wrong in assuming that the mass media coverage warranted an early release for Fantastic Four #587. The death-centric issue is already headed back to press for a second printing, after selling out at Diamond Comic Distributors before officially hitting the stands.

"The response to Fantastic Four #587 has been phenomenal and we want to thank the retailers for supporting the book to make this a success. It's because of them we're able to bring this acclaimed run to people outside the industry." said Marvel SVP of Sales, David Gabriel. "With all the extra attention our books have acquired recently, it's tough trying to keep all of our critically acclaimed titles on store shelves so they're readily available for fans new and old."

The second printing of Fantastic Four #587 will feature a second printing variant cover by Marvel Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada (above) and be available for sale February 23. Also headed back to print after sellouts at Diamond are Amazing Spider-Man #651, Amazing Spider-Man #652, and Invincible Iron Man #500.
